Actually, no. Not dolphins as in the bottlenose, anyway. It's too cold. We DO have Orcas, though. Which are just as cool, and actually technically dolphins. Hell, our Orca's are the most studied group of the species on the whole planet. About 3/4 of everything we know about them comes from our resident and transient pods.

Wow. I want to see an orca. They're so cool.We have dolphins, but not all year. Occasionally we'll get a lost manatee, and then IFAW will seriously mishandle the situation and try getting it back to Florida... in a Penske truck.

They really are. So huge, and yet at the same time so smart. Almost, if not more so, than both dogs and monkeys. Wow. A manetee that far north really is lost. I'd like to see thatm, though. Mantee in a truck. They must speed something feirce.

Ugh. It was bad. I went to the loading, it was just lying there on a blanket. Needless to say, it died on the trip. I'd have left it in the harbor, or dropped it off in Maryland instead of going all the way to FL.
